Embark on a vibrant musical journey that transcends borders, blending classical mastery with global rhythms. From the exceptional virtuosity of Paganini to the modern Turkish textures of Piazzolla's Histoire du Tango, this program brings together composers from Argentina, Cuba, Turkey, and Italy, each contributing a distinct voice shaped by place and history.Works by José Manuel Lezcano—performed by the composer himself—bring fresh, contemporary energy with Cuban, Argentine, and Caribbean inflections.
